Alex Kadis's debut novel "Big Nobody" follows Connie Costa, a music-loving teenager in 1970s east London struggling to escape her controlling Greek Cypriot father and a traumatic family tragedy while fantasizing about Marc Bolan and freedom. The coming-of-age story blends 1970s cultural references with darker themes of PTSD, domestic control, and patriarchal restriction as Connie pursues her dreams of becoming a musician.
